audioslave - your time has come





now one fell asleep in the street

and he never woke up

and now one died in pieces

whose been with a mouthful of ghosts

and one who threatened me long ago

i saw him

melt in the bright of day

and one laid to rest in the field

on the stories and crawled, hey



chorus

i've been wandering sideways

i've stared straight into the sun

still i don't know why you are dying

long before your time has come

your time has come



one took some bullets in the chest

in a deal gone wrong

one got a little too depressed

so he went and jumped the gun

one got shot right in the face

and somehow he survived

but he doesn't know my name or who i am

and i'm not surprised



chorus

i've been wandering sideways

i've stared straight into the sun

still i don't know why you are dying

long before your time has come

i've been wandering sideways

i've stared straight into the sun

still i don't know why you are dying

long before your time has come

your time has come



i've seen 50,000 names all engraved on a stone

most of them met an early grave years

before i was born

all of them left brothers

and sisters and mothers behind

and ost of their family and friends

are alive everytime



chorus

i've been wandering sideways

i've stared straight into the sun

and i don't know why you are dying

long before your time has come

yeah i've been wandering sideways

i've stared straight into the sun

i don't know why you are dying

long before your time has come

long before your time has come

long before your time has come

your time has come
